Bins, bulky waste and tips in Melbourne

Useful if you are moving in or out. Collection days, hard waste rules and tip fees are set by the council or government service responsible for your address, so use their official links below.

Melbourne is split between City of Melbourne and City of Port Phillip. The CBD is in the City of Melbourne. To find out which council collects from your street, use each council’s bin collection lookup below or the Victorian Government’s Know Your Council search, then follow that council’s details.
